This weekend we’re getting a new premier as the BC Liberals are holding their convention. The vote will be a weighted proportional representation system, so every riding will get 100 votes based on the popular vote in that riding. That number gets distributed, and the lowest candidate gets eliminated every round, with their votes moving to the person the voter indicates as their second place candidate. The first candidate to get more than 4250 votes wins. This ensures that every riding is represented evenly across the province. Of course if you didn’t give the Liberals your $10, you don’t get a say. Expect another provincial election soon after. CityCaucus.com gives us a little preview. You can watch the event unfold on Global BC starting at 5:45pm.
